| 2026 | B | Boomilever | Teams will design and build a cantilevered beam or truss structure that extends from a vertical Testing Wall and supports a load at a specified distance from the Testing Wall. The structure must meet the requirements specified in these rules to achieve the highest score, which is a combination of structural efficiency and Load Scored Bonus. |
| 2026 | B | Helicopter | Prior to the tournament, teams will construct, collect data on test flights, analyze and optimize free flight rubber-powered helicopters to achieve maximum time aloft. |
| 2026 | B | Hovercraft | Prior to the competition, participants will design, construct, and calibrate a self-propelled air-levitated vehicle that moves down a track. |
| 2026 | B | Scrambler | Teams design, build, and test a mechanical device, which uses the energy from a falling mass to transport an egg along a track as quickly as possible and stop as close to the center of a Terminal Barrier (TB) without breaking the egg |
| 2026 | C | Boomilever | Teams will design and build a cantilevered beam or truss structure that extends from a vertical Testing Wall and supports a load at a specified distance from the Testing Wall. The structure must meet the requirements specified in these rules to achieve the highest score, which is a combination of structural efficiency and Load Scored Bonus. |
| 2026 | C | Bungee Drop | Each team will design one elastic cord to conduct drops at a given height(s) and attempt to get a mass placed in a bottle as close as possible to, but without touching, a landing surface. |
| 2026 | C | Electric Vehicle | Teams design, build, and test one vehicle that uses electrical energy as its sole means of propulsion to travel in a set amount of time and stop close to a Target Point. |
| 2026 | C | Helicopter | Prior to the tournament, teams will construct, collect data on test flights, analyze and optimize free flight rubber-powered helicopters to achieve maximum time aloft. |
| 2026 | C | Hovercraft | Prior to the competition, participants will design, construct, and calibrate a self-propelled air-levitated vehicle that moves down a track. |
| 2026 | C | Robot Tour | Teams design, build, program and test one Robotic Vehicle to navigate a track to reach a target at a set amount of time as accurately and efficiently as possible. |
